10. Pull the power steering (6) upwards and move
the lower section backwards in order to force off
the steering chain (3).
11. To fit the power steering, follow the instructions
in the reverse order. The steering column's two
drive discs (4) should be torque tightened
during fitting (5-10 Nm/3.5-7 lbf. ft.)
Ensure that the steering wheel is in the centre
position when the rear wheels are centred. Re-
set the chain on the power steering sprocket or
adjust the rear mounting for the steering cables
as needed. Hold the cables with, for example, a
wrench when mounting so that they do not
twist.
12. After mounting, the cable tension should be
checked (see 'Checking and Adjusting the
Steering Cables').
13. Bleed the hydraulic system of excess air.
